When people think of heart surgery, they often think of a repair: replacing a defective valve or patching a hole in the heart. Reconstruction, on the other hand, is reconfiguring how the heart works on many levels. This can include repairing parts of the heart, replacing others, and creating new pathways for blood flow, all at once. The end goal for us when performing a complex biventricular reconstruction is a better-functioning heart that’s closer to normal heart structure, one that improves blood flow and creates better blood oxygen levels, which in turn leads to more energy and a better quality of life.
Biventricular reconstruction can sometimes delay or prevent the need for a heart transplant. It may also mean fewer complications with other organs, such as the liver and kidneys, and possibly fewer heart surgeries in the future.
At Stanford Medicine Children’s Health, we offer many forms of complex biventricular reconstruction for a wide range of heart conditions.
